Compare MHT files or test logs

a test suite during the night. Its runs a lot of tests.

Is ther a way of comparing the test logs or MHT export files for a quick and easy way to see any chaneg to failures?

Seems like a sensible thing to have but cant seem to find a way how to do this

  • There's nothing built in to TestComplete to compare log files.

    If it takes taht much work to determine what has passed and/or failed, then it sounds like you might want to revist your model for what you write to the log itself.  Generally speaking, less is more... if something passes, you don't need to log it.  Logging only failures makes your log much more readable.
